Homebrew Gargoyle Species Details
A terrifying mix of stone and magic and the fierce protectors of the fortresses they reside in.
Gargoyle Traits
The gargoyles are full of surprises/Darkvision
You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Stone Skin
Being made of stone, your skin is extremely resilient. While you are not wearing armor, you get an addition +2 to you AC. You can't use this feature if you're wearing armor..
False Appearance.
While you remain motionless, you are indistinguishable from an inanimate statue of a gargoyle. You must maintain concentration during that time as if you were casting a spell.
Elemental Nature.
A gargoyle doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep. Instead of sleeping they meditate deeply, remaining semiconscious, for 4 hours a day. While meditating, you can dream after a fashion; such dreams are actually mental exercises that have become reflexive through years of practice. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that a human does from 8 hours of sleep. While gargoyles don't need to eat, many evil gargoyles have become addicted to eating the flesh of creatures they have killed and can become very mentally unstable without eating for a few days.
